Rough roads: the Gramphu – Batal – Kunzum La stretch is unpaved with water crossings, and the Kinnaur road has landslide zones. A Himalayan 411 or 450 is the best choice. Foreign nationals need an Inner Line Permit for the Kinnaur border area between Kaza and Reckong Peo.

Choose your bike

The Gramphu – Batal – Kunzum La road is unpaved with water crossings. A Himalayan 411 or 450 is strongly recommended for Spiti.

Spiti Valley bike tour: frequently asked questions

How many days do I need for a Spiti Valley bike tour?

Five days is enough for Chandratal, Kaza and the villages around it on a round trip from Manali. Nine days lets you ride the full circuit through Tabo, Nako and Kinnaur and come home over Jalori Pass. On custom dates you can add rest days.

Is there a fixed departure price for Spiti?

Fixed group departures run on set dates in the season. Send us your preferred date on WhatsApp and we will share the per-person fixed departure price. For custom dates, the costing table and booking form on this page give an instant estimate.

How much does the tour cost?

The cost depends on your dates, group size and the services you choose. Per-day rates: Royal Enfield Classic 350 ₹1,500; Classic 500, Himalayan 411 and KTM Duke 390 ₹1,800; Himalayan 450 ₹2,500; accommodation ₹1,750 per person; marshal ₹3,500 (₹2,000 plus ₹1,500 for the marshal's bike); mechanic ₹2,000; backup vehicle ₹6,000. Bike and accommodation are per person; marshal, mechanic and backup vehicle are shared by the group. The costing table and booking form on this page give an instant estimate.

When is Kunzum La (4,551 m) open?

Kunzum La usually opens in June and closes with the first heavy snow in October or November. The Kinnaur side via Shimla is open for longer. We confirm road status close to your dates.

Which bike is best for Spiti?

The Royal Enfield Himalayan 411 or 450 handles the rough Gramphu – Batal – Kunzum La road and the water crossings best. The Classic 350 is fine at an easy pace if you are comfortable on gravel.

Do I need permits for Spiti?

Indian nationals need no permit. Foreign nationals need an Inner Line Permit for the Kinnaur border area between Sumdo and Khab, which we arrange. No Rohtang permit is needed because the route uses the Atal Tunnel.

How do I handle the altitude in Spiti?

Chandratal (4,300 m) is high for a first night, so drink plenty of water, avoid alcohol and ride slowly. If anyone feels unwell, we can swap the first night to Batal or go straight to Kaza. Tell the marshal at once about headache, nausea or breathlessness.
